consumers trust the quality of tap water
The Flint water crisis and other recent events have created or further engrained a fear and distrust of tap water in many communities. Water agencies are best suited to understand what is needed to consistently treat and deliver high-quality water safe for human consumption. As stewards of public health, water agencies must champion these strategies and act to restore and maintain consumer confidence in our public water supplies.
CURRENT PRIORITIES
Increasing public trust in purified water: Water is too valuable to use just once, and alternative water supplies, such as recycled and purified water, provide a safe and reliable way to bolster our climate resilience.
